Effect of Nonionic Surfactants on Dissolution of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons from Coal Tar
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The remediation in the subsurface of low solubility compounds such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) might be limited by their dissolution kinetics. Other studies have already proven that the addition of surfactants ...
Aesthetics and Gloss of Ground Surfaces: A Review on Measurement and Generation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Visual appearance of an object significantly influences a consumer's choice and largely controls the market economy. The perceived quality of products is governed by surface's optical properties (reflection, refraction, ...
Review on Grinding Tool Wear With Regard to Sustainability
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Manufacturing processes have to become more sustainable. For grinding processes, this means that tool wear and performance need to be critically evaluated in their economic, environmental, and social impact. Tool wear ...
Sustainability Indicators for Grinding Applied to Dressing Strategies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Growing environmental awareness leads production engineers to focus increasingly on energy and material efficiency of manufacturing processes. However, only a few holistic approaches have been applied on the manufacturing ...
An Approach for Model Updating of a Multiphysics MEMS Micromirror
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, a general approach is formulated for updating the parameters of systems governed by multiphysics equations. The optimization technique is based on Genetic Algorithms (GAs). GAs ...
Linking the Pacific Meridional Mode to ENSO: Coupled Model Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The occurrence of a boreal spring phenomenon referred to as the Pacific meridional model (MM) is shown to be intimately linked to the development of El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in a long simulation of a coupled model. The MM, characterized...
